LUMS Student Policy Research Initiative

On 8 Aug 2025, ahead of Pakistan’s 78th Independence Day, LSPRI & Rose Petal hosted “What Does It Mean to Be Pakistani Today?” with Shehzad Ghias & Talha Ahad, exploring youth identity, aspirations, brain drain & how to build the best future for Pakistan.

Glimpses from the All Pakistan Students' Conference held in April. Students, Professors, and Lawyers united to debate and advocate the revival of Student Politics in the country. A petition in this regard is pending before the Supreme Court.

The all Pakistan student’s association, in collaboration with LUMS policy research initiative is pleased to announce that we have filed our petition to revive student unions across Pakistan

Quite excited to represent you in this petition, InshAllah.

Had a wonderful session with Ex-Chief Justice Asif Saeed Khosa, along side @Pansota1 saab. Post-session meeting was specifically insightful and effective, whereby, we laid the forward plan to publicly petition in the Honourable High Court against the apparent ‘ban’ on #StudentUnions. This is a call to action for the future of student politics, where our team is looking forward to working with various student leaders of Pakistan for this cause! #lums
